Key facts
SRM helps to improve effectiveness and transparency of procurement activities. For large companies, this results in reduction of procurement costs by as much as 14%. SRM speeds up communications with suppliers and facilitates involvement of new potential suppliers. As a rule, this significantly increases the competition level of procurement processes, i.e. the number of bidders for each procured item. Meanwhile, collecting and sorting information on contract performance by suppliers in SRM reduces risks of delayed supplies, poor-quality supplies and avoids contracts being awarded to unreliable suppliers.
